Proof66 Notes

The Cuervo name traces its history all the way back to 1758 with Jose Antonio Cuervo. The name quickly grew for the next 100 years to include somewhere between 2.5 million and 5 million agave plants on over 10,000 hectares by the turn of 20th century. Unfortunately, in the 1930s, the estate was broken up into smaller farmsteads.

Grupo Cuervo was formed in 1979 after several different owners and managers of the Cuervo brand and assets. Since that time they have been neck-and-neck with Sauza in tequila production and working with international distributors. In 1998, they expanded their brand into premium tequilas, including some Coleccion Anejo tequilas that fetched $1,000 per bottle.

1800 tequilas are made by Casa Cuervo from 100% blue agave. The name comes from the "historic event" of aging tequila in oak for the very first time. The line was first launched in 1975 as a premium sipping tequila. 1800 Reserva Antigua anejo tequila is the premium aged expression designed for "true connoisseurs" and the "ultimate tequila lover." The tequila is aged for at least 3 years in French oak. The 1800 tequila brand is owned and managed by Proximo Spirits.

lpy89 (201)Rating: 4.0(2015-04-08)Not the best anejo tequila nor the worst one. Has overpowering nose of wood with some vanilla and faint agave. The palate gives you spicy, woody flavor with rather smooth finish. Not something i would sip slowly and savor, but immensly enjoyable as shots and goes great with spicy food.

flintquatch (211)Rating: 4.0(2014-03-13)Again, im not a tequila guy, but this is good quality stuff. I would never sip it but its good for shooting and mixing. I wont really go lower quality than this for tequila

ChrisCarlsson (328)Rating: 3.0(2010-09-18)A low end anejo which is redeemed by the price point. While it lacks the finish and complexity of higher end anejos, it also lacks the price. Simple, no frills and cheap compared to other anejos, but as much of a value as its other versions. A reasonable around the house anejo, especially if you have friends who tend to shoot their tequila rather than sip it.
